RE: [Aroid-l] FW: any information about cancer-healing effect ofAlocasia?

From: "Tom Croat" <Thomas.Croat at mobot.org> on 2007.02.10 at 16:20:14(15277) Dear Derek: Wow! Whether there is any truth in this or not it will surely generate interest in Alocasia. Certainly this Alocasia macorrhiza is super common so it will not be difficult to find material to study. Tom +More Tom Croat, P. A.

Would anyone like to respond to this email that came to me today.? Russians believe that Alocasia Macrorrhiza plant can treat a cancer. In fact, my mother has been using it during last three years. She had forth ontological surgeries of last stage and her doctor advised me to be prepared for the worst. Now she is just fine and suggest me to start using this plant as a cancer prevention. Do you have any information about cancer-healing effect of Alocasia?
